Peter groomed the 5K Nordic Loop early this morning. He reported that there was 2 to 3 inches of new snow last night. New corduroy, but the classic tracks were not refreshed. He's headed to the Moose Meadow now and will groom the new snow. We're still not able to groom in the Upper Meadows because of numerous wet areas. It hasn't been cold enough to freeze the ground yet. Enjoy Winter!...

Today Sharon and Jeff Samuels, Karen and Shane Bowlin and Peter Zug cleared a few downed trees in the 4 Corners area and Jeff and Sharon stayed on to groom Moose Meadow Loop and connecting trails to Arlberg Parking area.
Groomers hope to get whole 5 K loop groomed into the evening. Stay tuned , go out and ski.pz...

Bunches of new snow. No grooming was done today because of a number of fallen trees. We spent most of the day trying to clear that up, but there is at least one tree down across the trail. PLEASE USE CAUTION WHEN IN THE GIRDWOOD FOREST. HEAVY SNOW LOAD, RAIN SATURATED SOIL WHICH IS NOT FROZEN, AGING HEMLOCK TREES. BE VIGILANT WHEN ON THE TRAIL; TREES CAN FALL ON YOU. LETS BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!...

Lots of new snow. Shane groomed it this morning, but there are no new classic tracks. Looks like Deb will go out this evening for a tune up groom after the new snow that has fallen today. Should be fantastic skiing. Take advantage of this great snow, and grooming...

After more than a foot of snow over the last few days, Jim and Peter groomed around 6 hours between them today to get a pretty nice groom. Some alder on Corkscrew area and overall snow is soft but quite skiable. As always, ski with caution and have fun! Welcome back to winter!
Other trails still need to drain last weeks water and gain another 2 feet of snow. Stay tuned....

The 5K Nordic Loop is being groomed today. Close to a foot of snow! No classic tracks will be set in this groom, but the classic skiing should be excellent anyway. The Arlberg Avenue bike trail is also being groomed. Enjoy!...

Groomers were out last night for a track pack on the 5K . Our grooming season has begun.
As of today, winter rules apply: We now are in Ski Only Mode!
So please leave your bikes and dogs at home and bring your skis!...

As soon as we get enough snow to ski, our trusty groomers will be out making your trails smooth. We are back to gravel on the 5K loop. We are still in our multi- use trail mode but as soon as we receive groomable snow we are back to the ski- only status. Thanks for your support. " Winter Happens. "
Please join us at the Girdwood School Bazaar today ( Saturday, 8 Dec. Noon to 6PM ) to support ski trails in Girdwood. Pick up your annual membership and some great presents and stocking stuffers from Girdwood artists and crafts- folks.
